I don't know why anyone would trust the site at this point. It seems the promised "bankroll" was not as high as advertised. Did ED ever publish proof they held such reserves? Freezing 1Dice1 but allowing other people to redeem gave investors time to flee. Now there is certainly not enough to cover the losses.

This bet "verification" ED is talking about sounds only like an attempt to find an reason not to pay. If someone lost money to ED and requested a "verification" of all the bets, how do you think that would have went down? Everyone would have accused them of just being butthurt over losing money and there would have been a whole lot of "well you knew the risks of gambling, yada yada..." What a ridiculous double standard. ED advertises "provably fair" so how is there a need for verification in a provably fair system? In the event of a site leak or whatever everyone is on about, that's the site owner's fault. You can't tell gamblers "you knew the risks of gambling, it's your loss for being bad at it" then not tell the site owner "you knew the risks of running a gambling website, it's your loss for being bad at it."

In short, this is total garbage. If anything, this should push all other dice sites to publish proof they hold the reserves they say they do if they don't already.

At this point, he can afford to chase a loss of 20 btc with more gambling without breaking a sweat. That would be extremely nerve-racking for anyone else to the point they might not continue. But for him, a small portion of bankroll.

I know time stamps are shown in UTC. Is it possible currently, or would it be possible to add the ability, to change the time zone your account is shown in? It would be useful for me to be able to see when the last share was mined by one of my miners in my local time zone without having to do the conversion to UTC.

How often do you make payments to investors? Or do they just take any profit (assuming there is some) at the time they divest their interest?

your second assumption is right, investors can just take their btc and leave.

Hi, just so I understand then, let's take as an example the last two days you have entered here:

update 17.04.2014  invested 0.54708222BTC, ~0.5726%. lots of gambling, more invest   site bankroll 95.540405 & site profit 15.189882
update 19.04.2014  invested 0.56231407BTC, ~0.5714%.                                          site bankroll 98.221269 & site profit 17.802014

Let's just assume that the increased bankroll all came from one person for the sake of simplicty. Bankroll increased by 2.680864 and profit increased by 2.612132. So if our investor there were to divest after one day of investment, if I'm understanding the process correctly, his profit would look like this:

2.680864 (his investment) / 98.221269 (total investment) = 0.0272941291361243 (his share) * 2.612132 (site profit during his investment) = 0.07129586 (his profit)

So his total withdrawal would be 2.680864 (his investment) + .07129586 (his profit) = 2.75215986

Please let me know if I'm understanding the process correctly, or correct me where I went wrong. Thanks.

Here's the screen shot of the program running if it helps you at all:

No, I don't see anything like that. I'm using Sluhs's pool. I'll post a screen shot tomorrow when I'm back at the computer. Hopefully it will provide you some more information.
4248  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Not Earning Shares on: December 17, 2013, 06:09:37 PM
Thanks for the explanation, that's the first time the whole share thing made sense. So if I'm understanding it correctly, the reason shares are never generated is because the difficulty is too high for my computing power? Is it that blocks are solved before my computer ever stumbles across an answer? I guess that makes share generation unlikely, but not impossible?

I will post a screen shot of the mining program tomorrow (not at the computer running the program currently) but I can tell you it's the Kiv GUI miner and I selected it to run on both cores and it generates usually about 2-2.6 Mh/s.

I'm brand new to bitcoin, so I'm trying to learn how it works. Granted, several years late to the game, I'm just not sure if trying to GPU mine will be worth it. So I figured I'd try to set up the CPU miner to see if I could even do that. I wasn't sure if I did it wrong or if it's so antiquated as to be obsolete.
4249  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Not Earning Shares on: December 17, 2013, 05:29:56 PM
I'm not very techy, so this is more of an exercise to see if I even set it up right. I'm getting about 4 Mh/s, which is ungodly slow I know, that's not the point. I'm just wondering if anything is configured wrong, as I consistently show 0 shares produced. Should I always be at 0 shares, or should I produce some shares which are just .000000000000001 of the total shares and therefore never worth anything.
4250  Other / Beginners & Help / Not Earning Shares on: December 17, 2013, 05:06:10 PM
Just a quick question:

I have set up three CPU miners each with a separate worker account. I understand they are very, VERY slow compared to the total computing power of the pool, however each of my workers consistently produces 0 shares after a week of constantly running. This is not how I understood it should work. I thought that even though they are very slow, they would produce some shares, even if it is a very, very small portion of the total shares produced.

I know that finding a block is like winning the lottery on a CPU miner, but is the production of shares like a lottery as well, or should my workers be producing some small number of shares?

Please help.
Thank you.
